A nut with countless properties and benefits

This obviously has a positive effect on not destabilizing the glycemic index of the organism, so it is perfectly tolerated by diabetics.

Very healthy fats

Among its most relevant qualities or characteristics is the fact that it is composed of a great richness in fats, hence it is possible to assure that 55% of the weight of a dry almond is its exclusive content of fatty acids. Of this total, 65% is monounsaturated fats such as those found in olive oil, 26% is polyunsaturated and only a tiny part is saturated fats, which represent less than 10%.

Minerals in high abundance including calcium
